Workout Overview

Stimulus

This workout challenges your core, grip strength, and endurance. The AbMat sit-ups give your midline a solid workout, while the farmer’s carry, done twice each round, will test your grip and shoulder stability. The double unders keep the intensity high and your heart rate elevated. Focus on keeping a steady pace through each movement, especially during the farmer’s carry, and push yourself to stay unbroken on the double unders. Consistency is key to finishing strong!

Strategies

The One | Teaching Focus

Roll the Shoulders Back

We’re emphasizing the importance of “rolling the shoulders back” during the farmer’s carry. This posture adjustment ensures that the shoulders are properly aligned, enhancing stability and reducing strain on the upper back and neck. Keeping the shoulders rolled back also engages the core and promotes a tall, upright posture, which is critical for carrying heavy loads efficiently and safely.

Logistics

Be prepared for your farmers carry distance, doing an out and back will be easiest and give athletes a goal to make it to the halfway point before breaking. If needed, you can do 25’ or 50’ down and backs.

Look For:

Ab mat sit up | Smooth pace here, athletes should remain moving and hold a pace where they can catch their breathe.
Farmers carry | Look for our teaching focus, we want the shoulders rolled back and down.
Double unders | Still focusing on the shoulders, we want to relax our shoulders in our double unders.
